Saw this going to be interesting with a new boss. Very excited for the upcoming season.

I'm curious to know why they brushed off the previously selected for 2014 before they extended the current teams tours. Only reasons I can think of is they either let them continue their current duties where they were stationed or they asked them and everyone but 'Cheetah' declined. He also will be replacing #8 this time instead of #3.

Who knows man, military logistics usually does the weirdest things with personnel. I honestly would not be surprised if some of them went back to their previous duty stations, due to the fact that they probably have a promotion waiting there. Either way the Air Force always seem to do a pretty good job selecting officers for the team.

They've had a new Boss rotate in every other season with the exception of only a few times throughout history. I think the end of this season could be more exciting for the Tbirds and Blues, as they'll both have the longest tenured teams in quite some time.

I was just excited because a new boss means a new style or "personalized flare" on the comms. Always fun to listen on how each boss is different than the last.
